Hs shite pal just be honestThought he was good last year. Playing out from the back, the opposition always leave him as the spare man, as he has been identified as the week link. His passing forward this season has been poor. Still young.
His passing accuracy, he gives the ball away double digits every gameHis passing accuracy is consistently good. How often does he miss a good, safe chance to pass forward?
If you want to see more, accurate forward passes from defence look at the availability of the midfielders to receive a pass in space. Eccles, Tats, Sheaf hide in possession. Rudi and Torp aren’t much better. They are all +/- capable - it must be a confidence/bravery issue.
What is Lati then I don’t think he is any good anywhereLatis not a centre half so I’ll let him off, he’s being asked to do a job he can’t, but Thomashow he’s made it to championship level, scares the hell out of me, you watch him and think well he’s slow so he must be able to read the game or can bring the ball out or be brilliant in the air, he doesn’t do any of that, maybe sums up our quality when he starts every week, how bad must Lampard think kitching and binks are
Exactly, if He’s playing you know your short, him and Thomas togetherWhat is Lati then I don’t think he is any good anywhere
his "challenge" for their goal was shocking. no need to make it, tbh. just run the guy into the corner and force him to turn back while we get into shape.He’s terrible

Good question ? remember when you played for a kids team that had that utility player, the one who’d play anywhere when you were really short, but was mostly a sub, I’d say that’s him, good to have around the squad but not your first choice centre halfWhat is Lati then?
At a push he is a very average right sided player in a back three, but he is the slowest thinking player I have seen for yearsWhat is Lati then?
His passing accuracy, he gives the ball away double digits every game
Any club that plays out from the back, their goalkeeper and centre backs will have the most amount of touches and passes.Correct. On average Thomas makes 69 passes per game at a pass accuracy of 84%, meaning he gives the ball away 11 times/game on average. His passing accuracy is higher than the team’s average. Thomas and Binks make the most passes, both above average accuracy, but they also give the ball away more than those less involved.
I believe that the lack of available options/bravery from midfield to receive the ball is a major issue this season.
QPR 1-1 CovJust for a little bit of perspective, whilst it was a poor goal to concede, we've let one goal in three games. Midfield is a bigger issue imo. Nothing wrong with those either individually, but they don't work as a set and need some aggression in there to stop the easy space when teams break on us.
We genuinely need 2 new centre backs at this level, Binks, Kitch, Thomas are not at this level, simple as that.
I rate Dovin, even when he got skinned when he came running out after our defence had fucked it, he put the player off and ultimately saved us.
Simms just needs minutes, simple as that. He boy ain't gonna press for 90 minutes, not happening, he's 6ft2. We play to his strengths and he will be a problem.
Thats what we paid for him so for once we didnt pay over the odds. I actually quite like him and think he is let down by those around him - LCB, RB and a weak DMHe’s a 2m ch for me. Very basic. Heads it. Clears it. Basic.
At a push he is a very average right sided player in a back three, but he is the slowest thinking player I have seen for years
Wouldn’t say I never want to see him play again but he’s Not good enough, we took a gamble on signing a league one defender hoping he’d be able to step up to this level and hasn‘t ,same as kitching, and Collins, didn’t help yesterday when in the first 3 mins he put a simple 10 yard pass out for a throw in,, we need 2 new centre halves who are good enoughSome utterly wild takes here.
Bit like people booing thomas today - not going to help at all is it.
thomas will be better with a leader/organiser for me.
to say never want to see him play again - go wobble your head.
Really strange move for him that.Gutted QPR got Ronnie Edwards. While unproven at this level I’d have liked to see him here

Last 15 games we have conceded 21 goals mate, of those 15 games games we have conceded 2 or more goals in 8 games.
there's your perspective mate.
defence is absolutely shambolic and the quicker the 4 centre backs are gone the better.
